The Autonomy of Mathematical Knowledge: Hilbert's Program Revisited
Franks, Curtis (Assistant Professor of Philosophy, University of Notre Dame, Indiana)
The Autonomy of Mathematical Knowledge presents the philosophical ideas underlying David Hilbert's foundational program in a new light. Hilbert's program is traditionally regarded as a failure, but Curtis Franks weaves together an original historical account with philosophical analysis to show both its validity and its philosophical significance.
